This tax malarkie is a right nuisance ! " taxed in the UK if other government pensions are also taxed" What actually, are OTHER GOVERNMENT pensions ? I want (yes want !) to pay whatever taxes we should pay, but these commercialiste seem to be a law unto themselves, if they are wrong 'we' pay all ways ? S
Mick chick...........I'll be intrigued at the responses,..does one HAVE to be resident 'somewhere' ? S
Whilst we are not in the same position as yourselves.............. I have always commented that I see little reason/benefit to be a resident here(we are by the way).....what benefits there are............minimal allowance on utilities, you save a bit on taxes when buying a property, but....... apart from the 'legal' position...........I'm not sure S
I have no idea what one should pay, I suggested €100-€150............as an answer to Lucy and Gerry's question.......... I thought that they were after a number as a guideline ? S
I just think the whole effort, cost and responsibility deserves at least €100...........and then there are bound to be hiccups ! We saw someone waiting for an arrival at 10pm on one night.............the arrivals had got lost ! €150 seems reasonable............. Good luck to those who do this ! S
If you assume 6 hrs.............4 hrs clean etc, 1 hr 'attendance' - travel, waiting, meet & greet, cost of laundry, etc, I can certainly see €100 being eaten into very quickly.............on top of this, there will be other unknown issues & costs. S
I would GUESS at about €100-€150 sounds about right, assume €50 per bedroom, the laundry, the cleaning and the meeting the greeting ? €200 sounds too much for an apartment, €100 sounds too little to get a proper job done? There may well be such a service provided by one or more of the forum users... Good Luck, S
